Episode Synopsis

In today's episode we spoke to two Colegio EPI students Gislaine and Marie-Jaindrah, both in their final year and members of their unit's student council. Following preventive measures implemented by the government to curb the spread of COVID-19 in Aruba, all schools in Aruba were closed starting March 16. A couple of weeks later, schools began adopting distance learning strategies to ensure students can continue getting an education during the pandemic. By May, Aruba was preparing to ease lockdown measures and Colegio EPI announced that exams and resits would follow soon. This led to many students expressing themselves on social media, not agreeing with the sudden news.
We approached Gislaine and Marie-Jaindrah to share their experiences as students of Colegio EPI's Unit Economia (Economics) and explain what happened during this whole ordeal. Finally, Gislaine and Marie-Jaindrah give in-coming EPI students advice on how to adapt to the new normal at school as well.
